Disable "Create Issue" functionality TestLink 1.9.6

[mbepperling]

Hello,

our company uses TestLink 1.9.6 with the issue tracker Jira (Soap).
We'd like to enable the "link issue" functionality, which is working right now, but we want to disable the "create issue" (the created tickets are too cryptic for our purposes). Is there a way to disable the "create issue"-button by making it invisible or disable it? Currently an error message is shown, but it would be nice to disable the funcionality. I have found an icon named "bug_add_disabled_famfamfam.png", so I think there is a way to do this, but I haven't found it yet.

Can somebody help who knows where to configure this in the GUI or where to change the code?
We've set the connection to Jira via the GUI (Issue Tracker Management) and yet made no code changes.

Thanks and regards,
Martin

>> the created tickets are too cryptic for our purposes)
purpose of this feature is allow quick & dirty creation of tickets, then later Ticket can be edited and improved, with better
description, attachements. etc. IMHO is a good compromise.
As always requested, providing some idea to improve the feature will be great for all community.
If you plan to do this create an user on our mantis site and create a requirement.

****** POTENTIAL SOLUTION ********
When trying to create an ISSUE TRACKER, if you click on the 'show configuration example' link you will get:
<!-- Template jirasoapInterface -->
<issuetracker>
<username>JIRA LOGIN NAME</username>
<password>JIRA PASSWORD</password>
<uribase>http://testlink.atlassian.net/</uribase>
<uriwsdl>http://testlink.atlassian.net/rpc/soap/ ... l</uriwsdl>
<uriview>testlink.atlassian.net/browse/</uriview>
<uricreate>testlink.atlassian.net/secure/CreateIssue!default.jspa</uricreate>
<!-- Configure This if you want be able TO CREATE ISSUES -->
<projectkey>JIRA PROJECT KEY</projectkey>
<issuetype>JIRA ISSUE TYPE</issuetype>
<!-- Configure This if you need to provide other attributes -->
<!-- <attributes><components><id>10100</id><id>10101</id></components></attributes> -->
<!-- Configure This if you want NON STANDARD BEHAIVOUR for considered issue resolved -->
<resolvedstatus>
<status><code>5</code><verbose>Resolved</verbose></status>
<status><code>6</code><verbose>Closed</verbose></status>
</resolvedstatus>
</issuetracker>

Pay attention to the BOLDED section, Try leaving these parameters empty. I'm not sure 100% but I think the create button will not be displayed.

Please try and provide feedback

JUST TESTED => BUTTON STILL THERE, some code change needed => open issue on mantis with request
